complementary angles have a sum of 90
\n" ); document.write( "x + y = 90
\n" ); document.write( "x = 4 + 3y
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute into equation
\n" ); document.write( "(4 + 3y) + y = 90
\n" ); document.write( "4y = 86
\n" ); document.write( "y = 21.5 degrees
\n" ); document.write( "x = 4 + 3(21.5) = 68.5 degrees
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
